An active pixel sensor self-correcting for most common faults is created by splitting the photodiode and readout transistors into two parallel portions with only a small area cost. Simulations show operation is the same for a single large device with no faults. When one half of the redundant pixel is stuck at low, output over a wide current range is reduced by 1.98 to 2.01. For one half stuck at high, faults output, after offset removal, is reduced by a factor of 1.85 to 1.92. Hence self-correction of the pixel can be performed with good accuracy via a simple shift circuit and with high accuracy with digital processing. Variation in transistor threshold voltages between the pixel halves of even 10% only causes modification of factors by 2-4%, hence giving a small effect.","PeriodicalId":187031,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 2001 IEEE International Symposium on Defect and Fault Tolerance in VLSI Systems","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128683226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such systems consist of an analog front-end to collect data, an ADC to convert the collected data to digital form and a digital unit to process it. The reliability of these systems is affected by the ability of its constituent blocks to tolerate faults. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the reliability of ADCs to ensure a highly reliable critical system. This paper illustrates the steps involved in the reliability enhancement of ADCs by first proposing a methodology for fault sensitivity analysis and then illustrating redesign techniques to improve the reliability of the highly sensitive(to faults) blocks.","PeriodicalId":187031,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 2001 IEEE International Symposium on Defect and Fault Tolerance in VLSI Systems","volume":"157 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134380388","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some extensions and implementation designs of these techniques have been introduced. Also, a wide set of non-usual fault models have been implemented. As an application, a fault tolerant microcomputer system has been validated. Faults have been injected using an injection tool developed by the GSTF. We have injected both transient and permanent faults on the system model, using two different workloads. We have studied the pathology of the propagated errors, measured their latencies, and calculated both detection and recovery coverages. Preliminary results show that coverages for transient faults can be obtained quite accurately with any of the three techniques. This enables the use of different abstraction level models for the same system. We have also verified significant differences in implementation and simulation cost between the studied injection techniques.","PeriodicalId":187031,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 2001 IEEE International Symposium on Defect and Fault Tolerance in VLSI Systems","volume":"168 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116315950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With help from alternating logic, this new design approach will result in a higher reliability, i.e., 100% stuck-at faults can be detected, modest hardware delay and overhead. The basic idea is to add inverters and multiplexers in front of and behind the arithmetic unit and to let some control logic choose the path for the data. This design methodology can be applied to any system with hardware redundancy. For demonstration and comparison, 16-bit VLSI ripple carry adders are designed and verified using both the time shared TMR technique and the time shared TMR with alternating logic strategy. It is shown from the simulation results that the proposed approach has higher reliability with only a small increase in hardware delay.","PeriodicalId":187031,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 2001 IEEE International Symposium on Defect and Fault Tolerance in VLSI Systems","volume":"445 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122806803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fault identification has been obtained by using a checker permitting the identification of classes of faults. When a fault is detected, an interrupt for the microcontroller is generated and the interrupt handling routine partially reprograms the FPGA to override the part of memory configuring the faulty block. The architectures of the SoCs recently appeared on the market are characterized by a very efficient interaction between the microcontroller and the FPGA allowing a very efficient implementation of the fault detection and fault recovery strategy.

By integrating FPGA fault tolerance and concurrent error detection (CED) techniques, our approach can achieve significant availability improvement by minimizing the number of reconfigurations required for FPGA fault location and recovery.
